Welcome: it’s #SooperSunday, a day set aside to wonder about things and cook up a pot of soup.Here’s something to wonder about, a rare instance of hell freezing over: Bill Maher gets something right. In this case the very nature of fake news. Meanwhile we are awaiting the 3rd wave of the “Big Blow” that dumped 7 feet of snow on northern Cali. Disappointingly, wave 1 and 2 missed us. Only in states dependent on snowpack for its water supply – and harboring a huge ski-based economy - would that be a problem. The snow accumulation has been downgraded significantly...

....David Hogg appeared on HBO’s “Real Time with Bill Maher” to stress that the gun control agenda he’s been pushing is not about politics. He then bragged that he hung up on the White House… before his classmate dropped an “F-bomb” on national television, directed at “all generations before us.” ...“I actually hung up on the White House the other day,” Hogg boasted, explaining that they had called him the day before Trump’s listening session to invite him to attend.

Two survivors from the Florida high school shooting said they will not be giving up on their push for gun control anytime soon, with one saying that "President Trump needs to listen to the screams of the children." “We are millennials and we love complaining more than any other generation," David Hogg said on HBO's "Real Time with Bill Maher" when asked how long he and fellow student Cameron Kasky would push for gun control. Hogg said during the interview that the White House called him the day before Trump's listening session last month with students and family members impacted...

Former Mexican president Vincente Fox was the mid-show guest on Friday’s episode of “Real Time With Bill Maher,” and right off the bat they discussed the mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Fla. And as far as Fox was concerned, the tragedy is a by-product of bigotry and racism, particularly the sort that comes out of Donald Trump’s Mouth.

U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley has vehemently denied a rumor started by “Fire and Fury” author Michael Wolff that she is having an extramarital affair with President Trump, calling the allegations that she slept her way to the top “disgusting” and “highly offensive” to women in power. “It is absolutely not true,” Mrs. Haley told Politico in an interview published Friday. “But it goes to a bigger issue that we need to always be conscious of: At every point in my life, I’ve noticed that if you speak your mind and you’re strong about it and you...

RUSH: Friday night, HBO’s Real Time with Bill Maher. He spoke with environmentalist wacko and author Bill McKibben about his efforts to convince people that climate change is real. You know, if it was real, you wouldn’t have to convince people. That’s the thing about science. If it’s real, there’s no convincing. You don’t have to sell science. Science doesn’t need a marketing plan. Science doesn’t need a political action committee. Science doesn’t need donors. Science doesn’t need to run ads. Science is, by definition, science. It’s tested to the point of infallibility, and only then are conclusions published. And...

Should he stay or should he go? Hollywood, never as monolithic as Fox News viewers believe, certainly has reached no consensus on Al Franken, the Saturday Night Live veteran turned Minnesota senator. Â“Zero tolerance,Â” tweets Alyssa Milano, firmly in the he-needs-to-go camp. On the other side: Â“He made a mistake,Â” said Chelsea Handler, agreeing with a Franken-supporting Bill Maher on last nightÂ’s Real Time With Bill Maher. Â“HeÂ’s not a predator.Â” Maher neatly summed up the anti-resignation argument: Â“He did a bad thing and the condemnation has been universal, which he deserves. What he doesnÂ’t deserve is to be lumped...

UPDATE with video Bill Maher didn’t exactly go easy on his pal Al Franken tonight, spending much of the opening monologue and a big chunk of Real Time’s season finale tossing joke grenades at the Minnesota senator. But the HBO host drew a hard line between the former Saturday Night Live staffer and the ever-growing gang of famous abusers and grabbers. Maher then described the scandal – the photo of Franken “mock-groping” Leeann Tweeden, then writing and demanding a rehearsal of a sketch calling for a kiss. “Al’s a friend,” Maher said, “but Al I gotta tell you, if you...

Woody Harrelson has revealed that he had dinner with Donald Trump - and it left a bad taste in his mouth. The actor told Bill Maher on Friday's edition of Real Time that he was put off his food by Trump's 'narcissism'. 'I had to walk out halfway through, smoke a joint, just to steel myself for the rest of the thing,' Harrelson recalled. 'It was brutal.'

Hollywood has become a platform for propaganda and politics. Celebrities spout activism at every available opportunity. Many Americans have tuned them out and quit watching them almost entirely over it. They don’t seem to get they are alienating half of their audience either way they go.

On Friday’s broadcast of HBO’s “Real Time,” host Bill Maher stated that Senator Bob Menendez (D-NJ) should stay in the Senate, even if he’s a Menendez brother. Maher said, “[I]n normal times, I would say, well, maybe the Democrats should vote — he’s a Democrat, to vote against Bob Menendez and say, ‘You should get out of the Senate. Except, in the post-Merrick Garland world, where the Republican view is you know what, whatever you can get away with, I don’t care if he’s a Menendez brother. He needs to stay in the Senate. Because if he leaves before Chris Christie...

As Texans reflect and recover from the devastation that came with Hurricane Harvey, comedian Bill Maher told his audience Saturday night that the survivors have no right to ask for federal aid. Texans have a "low tax base," he argued. Oh, and they don't believe in climate change. Why should Washington bail them out? "These places that got flooded, like Texas, okay, they have a low tax base," Maher said on his show "Real Time" on Friday. "So, the federal government bails them out. Their governors, their legislators they donâ€™t believe in climate science.""It seems like the responsible folks in...

“Real Time” host Bill Maher incredulously dissected President Donald Trump’s latest set of disgusting tweets on Friday. “There’s so many important things going on, but never mind all that,” said Maher at the top of his monologue. “‘Morning Joe’ is in a Twitter feud with the Real Housewife of Pennsylvania Avenue, so let’s get right to that.” After quoting what Trump insultingly tweeted Thursday about “Morning Joe” host Mika Brzezinski’s appearance, Maher said “that slapping sound you heard yesterday was the entire country going...”

On Friday night's edition of HBO's Real Time, host Bill Maher expressed his concern of a permanent Republican majority. Maher noted that Trump has the power of incumbency, has Republican state legislatures behind him, has the ability to nominate at least two Supreme Court Justices, and the backing of FOX News, Breitbart, and Drudge. He also warned that Trump "hasn't even played his war card yet," and "could start a war and get a lot of support" from that.

The man suspected of opening fire at a congressional baseball practice is 66-year-old James T. Hodgkinson ... and judging by his social media, he REALLY hates Donald Trump. Hodgkinson's Facebook page is loaded with anti-Trump posts. He's also a staunch Bernie Sanders supporter. Also notable, Hodgkinson is also anti-Hillary Clinton, with several posts about her as well. Among the posts on his page, there's one that stands out from March which says, "Trump is Traitor. Trump Has Destroyed Our Democracy. It's Time to Destroy Trump & Co."

Ice Cube appeared on Bill Maher's HBO show on Friday (June 9), where he addressed Maher for referring to himself as a "house n****r" in a previous episode. The veteran rapper got serious with Maher when he asked him, "What made you think it was ok to say that?" Cube went on to say that it's very hurtful to him anytime a white person says the n-word, even if he says they didn't mean it. He explained, “It’s like a knife, man. When I hear my homies say it, it don’t feel like venom. When I hear a white person...

Nebraska Senator Ben Sasse appeared on HBO's "Real Time with Bill Maher" show to promote his new book, "The Vanishing American Adult: Our Coming of Age Crisis -- And How To Build a Culture of Self Reliance." Surely Sasse didn't expect this routine publicity spot for his book to turn into a media storm. But thanks to Bill Maher's infamous and irreverent mouth, this is what happened. Maher, of course, makes his living being irreverent. But now he has discovered that even a rich left-wing provocateur has lines he can't cross. And using the classic word of black denigration --...
